Orthopedic Advisory Board
History
In 2006, Sealy created the Orthopedic Advisory Board (OAB), comprised of top orthopedic surgeons, researchers and clinicians from leading universities and medical centers, to assist in its continued effort to innovate and advance its orthopedic heritage while fulfilling its corporate mission to help the world sleep better.
Goal
With the Orthopedic Advisory Board at their side, they’ve designed and created a mattress that offers maximum support without compromising pressure relief. They call it Orthopedically Correct Design. How did they do it? They started with one very simple but important principle: our bodies aren’t uniform, so why should our mattresses be?
Result
The new Sealy Posturepedic features a revolutionary push-back support system, designed specifically to distribute weight away from the heavier parts of our bodies, relieving pressure from where it’s concentrated the most. That translates into whole-body comfort, all night, every night.
